By ITCH<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boy, I’d sure like to go back to Saratoga.<\/p>\n

But, it’s an awful, long drive.<\/p>\n

What might be easier?<\/p>\n

Why yes, there is a Grade 1 this week at the Simulated Spa. If I don’t take another real trip, how about a simulated one?<\/p>\n

Here we are for the $1.5 million, Grade 1 Birmingham Stakes<\/em><\/strong>, a 10-furlong main-track test for 3yo fillies. It’s the female version of the Travelers, and gives this writer a chance to revisit the top 3yo fillies of 2015. Having covered the Bluegrass Oaks this spring, it will be interesting to see what has developed over the summer in this division.<\/p>\n

For one thing, it appears the 10-furlong distance of the Birmingham has precluded inclusion of several of the top-ranked fillies. For instance, the top-ranked filly, Jacklad’s MR. P’S MEDS, competes much more successfully at 8.5 furlongs, and opted to take down a Grade 3 in New Jersey last week at that distance rather than try to get the 10 panels in New York.<\/p>\n

Of the Top 20 fillies in the 3yo dirt route division, only four are entered in the Birmingham: OIL FOREVER, MISS MO, OUTBACK LEETON and DISTASTEFUL MANNER.<\/p>\n

So, for a filly capable of getting the mile and a quarter, the Birmingham represents a chance to climb the 3yo filly rankings without having to beat very many of the top-ranked runners. Also, the fact that most trainers have opted away from this spot means an opportunity for new shooters to get a start in a Grade 1 with only a handful of stakes points. There are five runners in the race with fewer than 20 stakes points.<\/p>\n

Two fillies in the Birmingham can rise to No. 1 in the division with a victory or a runner-up finish. The first is Pyeman’s<\/em> OIL FOREVER<\/strong>, a light gray daughter of Canford Cliffs who remains No. 2 in the division despite missing the board in three straight races. Everything looked primed and ready to go for this filly in the Bluegrass Oaks. Pye had watched her win successive Grade 1 races, only to feel the sting of disappointment in Simulated Louisville as Oil Forever faded from second at the head of the lane in the Oaks to sixth at the finish line. Since then, Oil Forever has run two more disappointing races, eighth in the Grade 1 Chestnut Stakes and fifth last out in the Grade 2 First State Oaks. The good news is, Oil Forever can move up to No. 1 if she runs first or second in the Birmingham. The bad news is, her current form suggests she’s going to have a difficult time doing so. After watching her back up in the lane in the nine-furlong Oaks, Pye cut back in distance for her next two. Now, he reverses course and sends her farther than she’s ever raced. So, not only must this filly reverse poor current form, but she also must do so at an unproven distance. Even if she is not up to the task, Oil Forever remains a remarkable story. By the Irish sire Canford Cliffs, Pyeman had no idea this little filly would become a major player in the 2015 distaff Triple Crown. He debuted her on the turf over in Newmarket, and switched to the main track after her first two turf races were poor. Boom! She took off, and Pye shipped stateside for those two Grade 1 victories. Now, he’s giving his filly another chance to take her unlikely success story all the way to the top. She’s the only million-dollar earner in the field, and will break from post No. 8 at 7-1.<\/p>\n

Kashbarn Ken’s<\/em> MISS MO<\/strong> also can rise to No. 1 in the division with either a win or a second-place run. While Ken will represent the East-West Connection in the Birmingham, his mates at Comedy Central and the BTB still will be rooting for his light gray daughter of Uncle Mo. It is fair to say that Pye and his gang at EWC have a strong presence in the 3yo fillies dirt route division, with two of the top three. Miss Mo is a testament to how quickly things can change in a 3yo division. Back in May, she did not have enough stakes points to run in the Bluegrass Oaks, and instead settled for a chance in the Grade 1 Consolation Stakes. She won! It was a special thrill for Roxyken, who never had a horse win at that level before. She validated that score with another Grade 1 win last out in the nine-furlong Sister Hen Stakes over this New York strip. “She’s my one and only Grade 1 winner,” Roxyken said in chat. “She’s so good, she’s done it twice.” Luckily, Mr. Profound Steverino from Chicago, Illinois, happened to be in the chat room and, as always, asked a most pertinent question. “Kash, it it true Miss Mo drinks a Guinness before a race?” Steve queried. “I’m not sure,” her trainer admitted. “I think she’s a closet drinker. Never seen her drink, but smell stuff on her breath.” Whatever fuel Ken decides to add to the tank of Miss Mo on Saturday, he’ll be starting a fresh engine. While many of her opponents in the Birmingham are laden with battle scars, Miss Mo has the look of a fresh filly. Ken gave her a nice long rest after her latest win. The Sister Hen was back on June 27, so Miss Mo enters the Birmingham off a seven-week freshening. Of the two big EWC guns in the Birmingham, Miss Mo looks far more likely to fire a big shot. The only drawback is she caught the widest post of all, No. 14. She’ll have to overcome that, and show she can get the extra furlong, to win at 9-1. On the other hand, a potentially strong benefit may be the pace in the Birmingham. There is not very much speed in the race, and the two speediest fillies qualify far down the order. Miss Mo has the best tactical speed of any of the heavy hitters, and could have the race fall her way on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Speaking of battle scars, it does not get much rougher than the recent form of OUTBACK LEETON<\/strong>, who has fallen apart completely in her last three races after earning her way into the Bluegrass Oaks starting gate. The problem was, once Outback Leeton got into the Oaks starting gate, she did not want to leave! That race was loaded with slow-breaking fillies, but Outback Leeton dwelt badly to break last of all 20. It was at that precise moment that Vyz’s<\/em> bay daughter of Smart Strike lost all of her career momentum. She ran one ugly line in the Oaks, struggling home 16th, then flopped twice more. First, Vyz took a shot in the New Yorker, but Outback Leeton wanted nothing to do with the boys, struggling home 34 lengths behind the winner. Undeterred, Vyz sent his filly back into open company last out, taking on the boys again in the Grade 2 Swamps Stakes. The result was a third-straight ugly running line. This talented filly who showed so much promise in the spring with a gigantic late run to win the Grade 2 Land’s End has collapsed into a dreadful state in which she simply jogs along behind her fields and never bothers to lift a hoof. When she was going good, Outback Leeton had a big late kick. Often with deep closers they either fire or they don’t. When they don’t, the result is an ugly running line. Even though she remains ranked No. 11 in the division, those last three races have gotten the attention of the New York morning line oddsmaker. She’ll go to post as one of the longer shots in the field at 15-1.<\/p>\n

About five or six years ago when Master Matty<\/em> entered the Sim world, it soon became evident to this writer that there was going to be a new trainer to reckon with at the highest levels of racing. Matt was making a serious investment, and knew what to do with his horses when he started getting good ones. All of Matt’s investment and training acumen are paying off in spades this year, as the Ozzy trainer has no fewer than 10 different Grade 1 winners this year in his powerful 58-barn outfit. DISTASTEFUL MANNER<\/strong>, a bay daughter of Giant’s Causeway, became the latest Grade 1 winner for Matt on July 25, when she closed from fifth to win the 10-furlong Players Club National Oaks. It is that race that gives Distasteful Manner a distinct advantage over her opponents in the Birmingham. While most runners in this field remain unproven at the distance, Distasteful Manner already has proven she can win at the distance. While several of the top qualifiers in here are hoping to reverse recent spates of poor form, Distasteful Manner enters the Birmingham razor sharp, having won the Grade 1 last out and four of her last six. About the only question will be whether she can still produce her top effort on a little bit shorter rest than she’s done in the past. “I think she will be tough to beat. Just a quicker turnaround than she has ever had to deal with,” Matt said. But the thing is, if Matt says she’s ready, then she’s probably ready. To have won going away the way she did last out over this New York strip sure seems to make her an obvious threat in this spot. She’ll break from post No. 2 at 9-1. If Distasteful Manner wins, and both Oil Forever and Miss Mo run off the board, she’ll jump all the way from No. 15 to No. 2 in the division.<\/p>\n

SANS CHEVAL<\/strong> will make her 20th career start in the Birmingham, but her first since May as trainer Hansg<\/em> finally backed off on this bay daughter of the English sire Farhh. It will be very interesting indeed to see what benefit her long rest will give to Sans Cheval, who wilted this spring after a very heavy racing schedule. After racing on short rest all her life, Sans Cheval was mercifully sent to the farm after a dismal 13th-place run in the Black Middle Flower. She’s had three months to rest and recuperate. Can she spring back to life with the benefits of her vacation? She’s won two Grade 3 races, and was second in a Grade 2 going nine furlongs. The filly has class. She proved that in the Oaks, really, despite finishing eighth. However, she did manage to finish in the front half of the 20 fillies in the Oaks, despite entering the race in poor form derived from her heavy racing schedule. The fact that she’s been able to compete successfully in graded company at nine furlongs does lend some suggestion that she might be able to get the 10 furlongs of the Birmingham. Win or lose, Sans Cheval will remain the best horse by her sire in the Sim. Farhh, a son of Pivotal, has only one graded winner in the Sim, and it’s Sans Cheval. There is a trainer named Lakers who has a 3yo colt by Farhh named FARHH CRY that ran third in a Grade 3 in May. There must be something I’m missing in the translation from French to English to figure out what her name means. “Cheval” means “horse” and “sans” means “without.” So, Without Horse or Horseless? Like I say, something I’m missing there. Sans Cheval breaks from post No. 12 as one of the longer shots in the field at 15-1.<\/p>\n

All right let’s boogie on down to my man Cool Keith’s<\/em> owner’s box to join the celebration for PACIFIC TYPHOON<\/strong>, a late-running bay daughter of Grindstone. Keith is always one of the lively ones in the chat room, and for years we had a good time following the career of a horse Keith named Itchycoo Park, named for a cool old song that also happened to have this writer’s name in it. More recently, I picked up on a disco reference in the name of another of Keith’s horses, so we merrily listened to Disco Inferno one day. Keith is a lot of fun and I know he’d get a kick out of a big run by Pacific Typhoon in the Birmingham. It would be a nice feather in the cap for Keith and his mates at Empire State Racing to take down one of the featured 3yo summer classics at the Simulated Spa. Can Keith do it for the ESR gang? His filly still has to prove she can compete effectively at this Grade 1 level. Three times she has tried the top rung of the ladder, and three times she has slipped back. In three Grade 1 races, Pacific Typhoon has run sixth, seventh and seventh. Her most recent try was last out in the Grade 1 Sister Hen, captured by Kashbarn Ken’s Miss Mo. Not only will Pacific Typhoon have to turn the tables on that one, he’ll also have to do the same to DELIBERATELY, who was only fifth in the Sister Hen but in front of Pacific Typhoon. So far, Pacific Typhoon’s best race was in the Grade 2 Los Angeles Oaks two back, when she closed with a rush, making up five and a half lengths in the stretch to get up by a neck in a thrilling finish. (It may make sense that a filly named Pacific Something might like racing in California.) But, she’s shipped all the way east on Saturday for her first race in New York. It’s also her first race at the 10-furlong distance. This filly has a lot to prove at the class and distance, and as such, has too many question marks for Simulated railbirds to bear much confidence in her. If you hear loud disco music in the winner’s circle, you’ll know Cool Keith has pulled an upset. She’ll break from post No. 3 at only 7-1. In this writer’s opinion, the two shortest prices in the Birmingham, this filly and Oil Forever, are both serious underlays as co-favorites. “She has been a total surprise,” Keith said. “Anything she does is a bonus. All I can add is ‘burn that mutha down’ and then head back to the West Coast.”<\/p>\n

Pointblank<\/em> has two fillies in the Birmingham, and the first is RAPID REPLY<\/strong>, who will represent the GR Simsters. (In an interesting side note, Pointblank’s other filly in the Birmingham will represent rival Empire State Racing.) Rapid Reply is a bay daughter of Arch. While responsible handicappers normally do not get too excited about a filly who has won only three of her 12 starts, Rapid Reply rates a second look because of her proven ability at the class and distance. This filly closed from far back last out in the Grade 1 Players Club National Oaks to be second to Master Matt’s Distasteful Manner, whom she’ll meet again on Saturday. That race was conducted at Saturday’s distance of 10 furlongs. Rapid Reply’s last six races have been at distances between 9.5 furlongs and 10.5 furlongs. She already had shown she could compete successfully at the listed level going this far, winning one and hitting the board three times in a row. Rapid Reply may not have looked like the most serious contender for the Players Club National Oaks last out, taking a big jump from two decent-but-not-great third-place runs at the lower class level. No matter. She responded with a big late run to get up second, two lengths back of the winner. Can she run right back to that race on Saturday? If so, she makes perfect sense to complete the ticket if Distasteful Manner runs the strong race that can be expected of her. Right now, it looks like that Players Club National Oaks is the key race for the Birmingham. So many other fillies are so off form that it’s very appealing to this handicapper’s eye to see two fillies who just ran first and second this class and distance. One possible concern with Rapid Reply is that this will be her third race in only 47 days. A lot is being asked of her but she looks ready for the task with those two improving speed figures. The filly makes sense to me.<\/p>\n

Prolific Sim veteran Jakematt<\/em>, owner of a massive 102-stable operation, represents the old gang at DelPenn in the Birmingham with THREE OLIVE BARB<\/strong>, winner of this year’s Grade 2 Black Middle Flower Stake. This bay daughter of Ghostzapper crushed the field that day in Maryland to take down the second jewel of the Distaff Triple Crown. Dismissed at 19-1 off a place and a show in listed races, Three Olive Barb exploded on a sloppy track in Maryland. She broke a handy third, content early to watch a rabbit spend herself on a quick pace, then quickly accelerated to be second. As soon as the real running started, it was clear that Three Olive Barb was going to be an easy winner. She easily blasted by the tiring frontrunner, then increased her advantage over the other fillies who were trying in vain to catch up. Too bad for this filly that the track for the Birmingham is going to be fast, not sloppy. Perhaps chasing another off track, Jakematt took Three Olive Barb on a wild detour to Sweden last out for a dismal effort in a 12-furlong Grade 3 on a good track. Perhaps it was an evil sign that her odds that day were 6.66 to one. It also was a bad sign for the late Nick Perry, former host of Bowling for Dollars on Channel 4 in Pittsburgh, when the daily number came up 666 back in the 1970s. In addition to Bowling for Dollars, Perry also hosted the daily lottery drawing. One day, he conceived an ill notion. He would fix the drawing. Perry got hold of the ping pong balls in the three machines, and coated them with lead paint, all but the 4 and 6. Slow-motion replay later revealed eight ping pong balls laying like sinkers at the bottom of the machines, while only two bounced around like normal. The number could have come up 446, or 644, or 464, or anything but …………….. 666. It was the bookies who tipped off the state to the crooked drawing. They had lost too much money. Perry was convicted, and died in prison. Now you know the rest of the story. As for the filly, Three Olive Barb has been dismissed as the longest shot in the field at 21-1. For those who witnessed her triumph in the Black Middle Flower, that seems an intriguing price. The tactical speed she showed in the Black Middle Flower would come in awful handy in the Birmingham, if she can run the same kind of race. If she’s live, look for her to be somewhere near Miss Mo and move with that one when the cheap speed starts to tire.<\/p>\n

Perrodin<\/em> is a single-stable operation representing the Minnesota Testbarn Residency with SUPER GOOD<\/strong>, a light gray daughter of Super Saver. Like the fillies out of the Players Club National Oaks, Super Good catches the handicapper’s eye with proven ability at the distance, if a notch below the class. Super Good came flying last out from more than 12 lengths back at the second call to win the Grade 3 The Gold Rush at Saturday’s distance of 10 furlongs. This may be the now filly of the Birmingham, a late bloomer who had not tried so much as a listed stake before jumping all the way from allowance company to take down a Grade 3 last out. Her form is razor sharp, having won four of her last five, and she’s a perfect 2 for 2 at Saturday’s 10-furlong distance. If the Birmingham were the real-life Alabama, one number would be included in her past performances that would jump off the page to handicappers. That would be the barn’s amazing 41.7 percent strike rate. Of Perrodin’s 108 career starters, a whopping 45 have won! But just when you think you might like to keep an eye on this trainer’s horses, here comes the kicker. There aren’t any. Well, there are two left: Super Good and GOLDEN VALE, a regally bred 2yo daughter of Galileo who has failed to break her maiden in three starts, but hit the board twice. A likely guess when you see a gaudy win percentage in the hot racing age is that instant racing has built such a percentage. But there is no evidence of that here. There isn’t much evidence of anything! Two horses, and one of them is the real deal, and lives up to his name in Super Good. It says here this filly is coming into her own and could be primed for a big run in the Birmingham. She’s 9-1 and will break from post No. 5.<\/p>\n

The Grade 1 Birmingham represents maybe the chance of a lifetime for the remaining five fillies, who get a chance to enter a Grade 1 starting gate despite having less than 20 stakes points.<\/p>\n

Most of Pointblank’s<\/em> 31 high-class stables are stationed at GR Simsters, but a handful are at Empire State Racing. Such is the case with pointblank0, home to his late-running 3yo brown daughter of Street Cry, DELIBERATELY<\/strong>. In this filly, we have yet again another dead-end closer, a running style that seems awfully prevalent among the 2015 crop of 3yo fillies. So many of them just walk out of the gate and make one run, and it’s the same thing with this filly. There are bad trips waiting when a big field is loaded with a bunch of late runners, and that’s very likely to be the case for more than one of the deep closers in this year’s running of the Birmingham. Deliberately will have to show a new class level if she’s going to avoid being part of that group on Saturday. She’s never hit the board in four career graded races. To make matters worse, she was only sixth and fifth in the Grade 1 Players Club National Oaks and the Grade 1 Sister Hen. Both of those races are supplying runners for the Birmingham which have finished ahead of Deliberately. She is going to have to turn the tables on an awful lot of heads to contend on Saturday. One handicapping point in her favor is her ability at the distance. She has run her top two figures at 9.5 furlongs and then 10, so she’s playing her best game. That at least gives her what will be her best chance to try again to compete successfully at a class level that has proven beyond her reach so far. This filly will break from post No. 9 at 9-1, and I’m not sure her performance so far at this class level warrants merit as a single-digit odds runner. We’ll call this one an underlay.<\/p>\n

Breaking from the rail in post No. 1 is MIRADOR<\/strong>, who we can consider a threat despite having only 17.5 stakes points to her credit. Why? She’s speed in a race which may be devoid of it. Near as this writer can tell, there are only four of 14 fillies who are have the ability to leave the gate running in the Birmingham: Mirador, Toda La Locura, Miss Mo and Three Olive Barb. Of that group, Mirador and Toda La Locura must be considered cheap speed. As often happens in real-life racing or in the Sim, an outclassed speed horse may miss its break. Also, Three Olive Barb is coming off a misguided adventure to Sweden and may not be ready to run her best. So, the opportunity is there for a filly like Mirador, who has shown speed at the distance, if not the class. Can she make her break and do her thing in a Grade 1? This writer cannot blame Coolk<\/em> or his mates at EAAA Racing if they think this light gray daughter of Medaglia D’Oro has a chance. She jumps all the way from listed company to Grade 1, and now will face the most difficult test of her racing career. In her last two, she’s bounded off to huge leads. She’s been in front by more than four lengths in her last, and more than eight lengths two back, at the head of the lane. That 106 speed figure last out is a good argument in her favor, as is her razor-sharp form. To do her best, she’ll have to break fast, outrun Toda La Locura early, then keep on going. If they ever get to her, she’s in trouble, so she’ll have to steal off and hold on if she’s to hit the board. She’s only 10-1, which is a little hard to take considering how much she has to prove class-wise. However, if she’s in front when they turn for home, it will seem like a bargain!<\/p>\n

Redhill’s<\/em> FALKEN<\/strong> is getting very good respect from the New York morning line oddsmaker at 8-1. What gives? This filly has only 15.25 stakes points, her best rank is only No. 111, and she’s only one point off being the favorite in a Grade 1? I don’t know. This guy may be drinking more Heinekens at the track than your average BTB reporter. Falken could do, but Redhill’s bay daughter of War Front shows a spotty racing record at best in graded company. She’s been to the post six times in graded company, and only hit the board once. That race came four back in the Grade 3 Lady Bourbon going a mile in Kentucky. After that, Falken missed the board in two straight Grade 3 races before Redhill decided to prep her for the Birmingham with an easy allowance race at the distance in Ontario. She won easily, which gives a glimmer of hope for her in the Birmingham. Can she reverse her previous misfortunes in graded company? Will the 10-furlong distance work in her favor? There are some serious questions to be asked, and far too many to take 8-1 on this filly.<\/p>\n

The East-West Connection already had a strong hand in the Birmingham with Oil Forever and Miss Mo, and they have one more shooter in Stu44<\/em> with VICE DICE<\/strong>. She’s a bay daughter of Fusaichi Pegasus, and shows sharp form in lesser company in her runup to the race of her life. There’s a lot to like about this filly at 13-1. She’s won three of her last four, and her speed figures improved into triple-digit territory in her last two. She’s been racing effectively at 9.5 furlongs, very close to Saturday’s distance of 10 panels. She’s lightly raced, having been to the post only nine times. She’s raced very well over this New York strip, having been second and first in her two runs over the track. Stu44 started this filly’s career across the pond, racing her first six times in Japan, Europe and Dubai before shipping stateside for her seventh career start. She’s been racing on dirt all along, never yet trying a turf experiment and racing exclusively on the main track so far. This filly has started only five times this year, so she’ll be fresh and ready for the Birmingham. You have to like the fact that she has won her races by open lengths. The Grade 1 Birmingham will be a gigantic class test, but Stu44 has found a nice spot to take a shot with this talented filly.<\/p>\n

Finally, we have TODA LA LOCURA<\/strong>, the 14th and final qualifier for the Birmingham. Experienced trainers with runners in here probably would just as soon this brown daugher of See the Stars was bumped from the race. Why? Look no farther than her trainer. It’s Ledwith<\/em>, who is as dangerous as they come in big races. If Ledwith can pull another surprise in the Birmingham, it will be All the Madness for his rival trainers again. (Translated from Spanish to English, Toda La Locura means All the Madness.) Can Leddy do it again for his mates at Hispano Parlante? The pace may work in his filly’s favor. There is not much early speed, and Toda La Locura pressed the pace last out in the Players Club National Oaks before settling for fourth. She will not have to improve all that much off that race to contend on Saturday. In that race, Toda La Locura broke forwardly, edging from third to second as she chased a lone frontrunner. It was not long before Distasteful Manner made her move, and Toda La Locura resisted as best she could until about a furlong before the wire. V. Gardner is back aboard for another try, and may be lookign to get his charge a little closer to the front in the early going.<\/p>\n
